A pocket of my life

 Ever since having Olivia I have been self conscious about my tummy area, I have an overhang and a bigger belly than I had so finding something to wear that I feel comfy in is hard. This is where conturve has come into play, I have been trying out the high waisted shaping shorts, these are a game changer with there silicone band along the top to make sure they stay up for all day wear.  Conturve is a brand that to give women of all shapes and sizes a shot of confidence in hope that you'll love you body. I certainly feel that this brand has such a great sense of belonging in this day and age, its a great way to promote that everyone is allowed to feel comfy with how you feel. The high waisted shaping shorts have been a win for me, they are so comfy to wear under dresses or just with a t-shirt to make an outfit, they are so versatile and easy to style. I was a little unsure with how well they would work before trying them on but they soften out my tummy and give me a...

With Olivia now being 3 she is learning more about to to be independent and how to control her emotions and lovevery have a play kit to help with the development of this stage. The observer play kit comes with some great tools and toys to help them understand themselves more. We have kindly been gifted this play kit to try out and review for you, this is probably my favourite box to date and I am in love with everything that came with it.  The first thing in the box is the plan ahead weather board, this is by far my favourite as we can change it each morning and work out our day together, this helps to maintain routine and helps develop the idea of weather and seasons. The kits also came with some stickers for shoes, they come in two parts which ypu put in a pair of shoes to make the picture whole, these help them learn what way shoes go around.  Next in the box we're wooden emotional dolls and the emotion book set, these are both great for this age as th...

So this is a little different to what I have written about before but I feel like I need to share my experience to you all as I am surprised. I feel like I need to make more of a change with how much we throw away and one thing that is a constant thing is panty liners. These are something that I use since being a Mum as my bladder isn't quite as strong as it used to be, I wanted to make a change so had a look on etsy and came across a shop called  FollowTheHem  which sells a huge amount of different things including reusable cotton panty liners. I was a little bit worried about how they would feel and if they would stay in place, I was also a little worried about how they would wash just because I have never tried anything like this before. They arrived very quickly, were packaged discreetly and packaged neatly too.  To my surprise they were very easy to attach and clip onto the knickers with poppers that are very well made, they sit very comfortably and I don't even noti...

Cocktails made easy, that's what I can say about tails cocktails. They are ready made cocktails waiting for you all to enjoy. I was kindly gifted two bottles of Tails cocktails from TRND and I was pleasantly surprised by how tasty and easy they make a treat night. In the parcel I received a Passion fruit martini cocktail, a Espresso martini cocktail and a cocktail shaker.  I firstly tried the passion fruit martini one as that flavour is more my style and I was made up with the flavour of it, the fruitiness was just right but you could also taste the alcohol, this was not overpowering which I am glad about. It was very refreshing and perfect for a summers evening with friends. I have also tried the espresso martini version, I was a little more reluctant to try this as I was worried it would be bitter but I was pleasantly surprised, It was quite nice but could have done with being a little sweeter for my liking, this one you could not taste the alcohol at all.  I wou...
